Independence Air A319 Rates Posted:

[vc10]

That the FLYi A319 right seat went was bid very senior shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. The usual way pilots advance to an A319 or 737 is to leave (generally as a captain) from a regional airline (often flying CRJs) and becoming an FO of an A319 or 737 (at 1st year rates) at another airline.

So the same thing is happening at ACA except the pilots don't have to leave the regional to access the A319.

Re: Indy/ACA Pool

I know there are still many on furlough, but does anyone know if they kept the hiring pool they had from before the furloughs.

I interviewed in the fall of 2002 and was in the pool. They thought I would get a class by summer or fall of 2003, but then the furloughs came. I'm from the Dulles area and would still love to work there. I know new classes are probably a couple years away, but I can be patient. Just curious if I will have to reinterview or if the pools are intact. If we have to reinterview, I'm sure it will be much more competitive than it was before.

Thanks and good luck to Indy Air.

I wouldn't wait around for ANY specific airline...just go to the place that hires you first...don't waste time waiting in a pool when you could be buidling up flight time. You can still be in the pool and fly at another airline....

Back to the payscale...don't forget that there is also a profit sharing program. Not sure how it works, but its supposed to be fairly good. Our rates are probably a little low, but can be made up if we do well. At least then we're not hurting the company if we're not doing well, and we can make good money if we are doing good.

Surely there must be two seperate payscales just like every other airline....

Not every other airline. UPS pays the same rate for all types.

I Air will not.

OK i guess i should speak in plainer English....

Can someone post the RJ rates so i can compare them please? Just curious as to how different they are. Airlinepilotpay only lists the 319.

thanks.
